Sam was a trusted colleague and a good friend. For many years, Sam and Grant looked after the memorial needs of my client families in Port Elgin and Paisley, and was always careful to serve them with the utmost care. You would have to search a long time to find a finer person - a gentleman and certainly a “gentle man”! My sincere sympathies in your great loss!
